men, generally, of small pecunary MEANS
The greatest thinkers, discoveries, inventors

many Of them little raised above the condi-

circumstances. And it will all always be So
Riches are oftener an impeachment than a

The youth who inherits wealth is apt to have
life made too easy for him, and so he soon

struggle for he finds time heavy on his hands;
remains mentally and morally asleep; and his
position in society is often no higher than
that of polypus over which the tides float.

ing to give his property to the

construct form of his ownf There
ale important reasons why [ must
not be known in this matter, but |
say to you that it ie transparently
obvious that Mr. Martin meant to
40 just what you claim that be did.
ihe church cannot afford % possess
Itself OF that property. / speak as
a Methodist minister and member
OF the Tennessee conference. Mr..
Martin would have given it unmis-
Iakeaoiy and squarely to the church
after our form OF devise if he had
wanted it to have it.

A Family Reunion,

The Columbus, Miss, Index of
July IS gives column account of
the reunion of the Eel family the
18th. Thos. Green Ezell was born
in Virginia in 1915 and about 1880
moved to Giles county. In 1886 he
married Cynthia Haney, and in
1910 they moved to Mississippi.
They have large family Of de-
scendants who are doing well and
are of the very best people in Mis-
sissippi. Mr.. Ezell is a brother in
law of Mr.. J. B. ChiIders and an
uncle of Mace Ezelrs. His present
substan tal condition and high
standing recalls the fact that he
was considered once rather as a
ne'er-do-well and sorry predictions
were made tor him. He had three
sons in the Confederate army, has
always been a jackson democrat
and a zealous baptist. He kills the
fatted calf once 6 year ard calls in
his tribe and they feast and re-
joice for a few days. The family
has been remarkably preserved
not Q bone ever broken, and only
one son-in law and three infant
grand children dying. Not one was
ever accused even of misdemeano
and all who are old enough ar,
| church members. They have man,
relatives here and friends who vii

OF nearly g thousand volumes of

works selected with great care By
Mr.. Tyree Rodes in his life time,
who was a highly educated man of
much literary refinement. 1t was
generally known that DR.. Atchison
would donate it thus and for that
reason the bidding was light. DR..

Gus gift for the church and express

in the same columns the very nezt

saloon-that every wife with q tod
dy-loVing husband put up family
bar and sell him all the liquor he
wanted. Now which is most indeli-

and hogs or to 90 into the business

hogs out of our own husbands?

Stricklin, assisted by several othar
ministers, closed Thursday. The
result Of the meeting was several
conversions, nine accessions to the
church and general renewal OF
christians that had grown cold in
the cause, May the name of Jesus
run and be glorifed and the time
speedily come when every knee
shall bow and every tongue confess.
Mr.. Editor, we noticed an article
in The CITIZEN recently which
ought to interest everybody. Why
do not more of our leading men
come out boldly on the side Of pro
hibition. We think that the prin-
cipal reason is they are afraid they
can't be elected any more if they
support prohibition, therefore they
will occupy middle ground. But
we want them to understand! that
he that is not for prohibition is
against it and that there is no mid
die ground. We as christians can't
support g man who is q moral cow
ard, who is afraid to stand up for
truth and sobriety for fear of pun
lie censure. Friends, the harvest is
great, come labor in this great
cause till the 10Th of September
and we will be freed fIom this
mighty curse.
